The economy has grown at 5.7 percent per annum over the last decade and Zambia was among the 10 fastest growing economies of Sub-Saharan Africa in 2012. Fast growth has enabled it to attain lower middle income country (MIC) status with a nominal per capita income of US$1,299 (2011). Investor confidence has been high as evidenced in the successful issue of the US$750 million Euro bond. In 2011 it successfully held national elections in which the long standing ruling party was defeated by the opposition and there was a peaceful transfer of power. The Country Partnership Strategy (CPS) has five chapters. The first chapter provides a country context followed by a description of the key development challenges, the country's development plan and a summary of CPs support. Chapter two reviews the WBG's past support to the country, chapters three and four lay out the key features of this CPS including objectives, guiding principles of engagement and expected results. Chapter five notes the risks and the strategy for mitigation.
